History on
a Pinhead
Although early
population figures are unavailable, Zunkerville was established prior
to 1920 when it was named after merchant and cotton
gin owner H. R. Zunker. Zunker’s year of arrival is listed as
being 1916.
The community did have churches and a school and as late as 1961 the
community had 70 residents. Today the only evidence of a community
is an abandoned cotton gin. |
